Optex FA 100mm background suppression laser beam photoelectric sensor PNP output M8 4 pin QD

Description

Background suppression sensor with bright red laser light source for easy alignment set-up. Using the 4-turn potentiometer the sensing distance can be set from 20mm to 100mm. Sensors with background suppression are used to detect targets up to a certain distance. Unlike standard diffuse reflective sensors, which rely on light intensity, background suppression sensors rely on the angle at which the beam returns to the sensor. Objects beyond the specified distance, such as reflective backgrounds are ignored. Sensors with background suppression are insensitive to fluctuations in the color and reflectivity of the intended target. The laser beam diameter is 1mm at 100mm distance. The sensor will detect all opaque targets at the same set distance. The two-position switch allows selection of light-on or dark-on mode. Dual status indicators include a green LED for stability and an orange LED indicator for the output. Compact size (mm) is 31H x 20W and 11 thick. Enclosure protection is rated IP67. Price includes the sensor and mounting bracket with screws. Hook up method uses a M8 4 pin QD connector. Molded cables are not included and must be ordered separately. (order M8-FS4-PVC type) The solid state PNP(sourcing) signal will switch 100mA with a 0.250ms response.
